Job Summary
The Homeless Welfare Officers work as part of a team to deliver high quality, psychologically informed housing and hostel services to vulnerable, single homeless individuals, a number of whom have complex needs. These needs may include mental health issues, substance and alcohol misuse, offending behaviour, and who are vulnerable to rough sleeping.
Whether covering shifts across the main hostel or supported living accommodation or offering emergency assistance, you’ll play a vital role in helping individuals take steps towards a brighter future—securing permanent housing, accessing health services, or regaining confidence and independence.
